    It burns ..

    My CPU holds at about 53° C, which is probably low since I have a low speed fan on an cheap aluminum heat sink. Its not a worry unless you have stability problems or want to overclock. Its very well under the max spec for the processor (something like 85°). I think P4 throttling starts...

    Is there a definitive "best way" to partition an HD for speed purposes?

    I have 2 gigs for windows and its essentials and 28 gigs for all my programs and such. I find it convenient, especially when windows fubared and I had to reformat C:.....

    "High cost for for slight performance difference" SLIGHT performance difference !? your telling me 7 pins vs. 80 pins is a SLIGHT difference? of course drive performance SATA/PATA are the same, but NO RIBBON CABLES! I hate those things.....

    GeForce3 Ti200 Passive Cooling?

    I'm having fun quieting my computer here and I've got a question... can my GeForce3 Ti200 run without that little fan? I've got pretty decent airflow (I think); the northbridge is running at 26C. Are there any good tests for the stability of the GPU or something I can try too? I'll underclock...

    anyone know where to find a nice black case?

    KT-436B has received excellent reveiws, and the inside is even anodized black I beleive... I'm buying the windowed version as soon as I save up enough money myself :)

    rear fan ducted to cool a cpu help

    I've done a few experiments with ducting my CPU, XP 1800+. It started off a 'cool' 56 degrees C. The fan(80mm Vantec Stealth) was originally blowing air onto the cheap coolermaster aluminum heatsink, because my tests showed the temps about 2 or 3 degrees cooler than pulling away. So, rather...

    HD Noise Question

    Both of my hard drives where whining, so I suspension mounted them (see www.7volts.com or www.silentpcreview.com), using two peices of soft foam. The difference is like night and day.. before, I could barely hear my fans over the hard drives, now, I can't hear the hard drives over the fans.

    Case Advice

    I'm thinking about building a new computer soon here, and this time around, I have different priorities. #1 priority is it has to be quiet; #2 is it has to look cool :) From the anand reviews, I liked the Kingwin KT-436 (Review). I'd like other suggestions for a roomy, quiet, case that looks...

    56degrees ok?

    My processor runs 64C under load, 1800+ The only problem I've had involved short circuiting the 12V and 5V lines modding a fan.... oops! :o The bright side is I'm running it with a cheap aluminum hs, some crappy thermal pad that was on it, and a Vantec Stealth 80mm fan with a 60mm to 80mm...

    Silent Computers

    As Ouloat said, Dells are SILENT. I'll give you a hint to their silence- the case fan is an NMB. I'm using one for my case now too- their $2.50 on www.svc.com right now, and while they don't move a whole lot of air, you cannot hear it.

    OMG Tom's hardware hit the crack pipe hard! 65 CPU round up from 100 mhz to 3066

    At first I thought this was crazily pointless. But then I realized what a gold mine of information this is. Its a collection of data perfect for a task my parents are concerned about at their office right now- is upgrading ancient computer x worth the money? For the P2 333s I replaced it was a...

    Toms: Valentines Day Special *Lots of AMD Bashing*

    Its Odim's crowning moment! Someone agrees with him! http://www.overclockers.com/articles703/ . I still look at THG frequently myself; I like their news section, and now their stuff on games. But.... If ego could cool computers they could run a P4 at 4.4 GHz without a heatsink....

    AMD will die within five years

    The thing about the Opteron is it's not targeted for joe sixpack. Servers, Supercomputing, high-end workstations; these are the targets of the Opteron. AMD already has a strong presence in supercomputing for sure, and while I don't have any experience with the other two, I beleive they have...
